It’s the nature of evil that it wants to silence the Truth completely (and not just outside the Church, either). Evils in our society today such as abortion, euthanasia, gay marriage, contraception and fornication simply cannot hold up if they are subjected to real scrutiny by a person who has been properly Catechized in the Catholic faith.
Think about this way: If you have a room filled with darkness and a person lights a match, what happens? Well, the second that tiny glimmer of light appears, the darkness recedes right to the very boundaries of the room. It’s the same with Good and Evil in the public discourse… evil works can only exist when the Truth is completely absent from the discussion. In today’s society, political correctness and the left-biased media are used as tools to control and remove the Truth from our society.
I would go even further then this article and say that the surpression of religious views aren’t just limited to outside the Church, but inside as well. When was the last time you heard a priest preach a homily on evils of contraception? The church is very much being attacked by secularists/modernists and up until this point it appears that they have been very successful in controlling the message that the Church has been able to relay to its mass-goers…
